Kfar Duma Case – Articles

April 18, 2023

In this comprehensive link, Honenu has provided a significant number of links that provide overwhelming evidence that Amiram ben Uliel is completely innocent of the crime for which he is convicted of, namely the Duma arson of July 31, 2015. The perpetrators of this horrific crime are still at large, roaming the streets, free to repeat similar criminal acts that killed or murdered an Arab mother, father and their child.

Please report on the current pre Shavuot  letter writing campaign to Prime Minister Netanyahu applying public pressure to demand that Amiram pray with a Minyan together with the Agaf Torani for Shavuot. 

My own personal  letter to Prime Minister Netanyahu

אל המקום אשר...

The miscarriage of justice to Amiram ben Uliel is crying out to the heavens.

No Jew or Non Jew should be tortured in order to confess a crime he or she never committed.

His extreme solitary confinement is compounding his emotional and physical abuse and his unjustified imprisonment every minute. This must end.

For Shavuot he should davan with a Minyan and be with the Agaf Torani.

Dear colleagues,
We have been working hard the last few weeks. Our Gila Slonim was in America drumming up support for Amiram Ben-Uliel, the young Jew sentenced to three life terms plus seventeen years for a crime he could not have committed. Right now, we are turning to you for a quick and easy way to get Amiram out of solitary confinement for the holiday of Shavuot.
Thanks to public pressure, Amiram was taken out of solitary for the first two days of Passover. He was transferred to a wing for religious Jews, where he was able to pray with a minyan and participate in the Seder.
Shavuot is fast approaching and we want to do the same thing again for Amiram. We are asking you to send a letter, fax, or make a phone call to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and briefly demand that Amiram be let out of his cell for the holiday that commemorates the giving of the Torah. We could give you a sample letter, but then it would be obvious that you didn't write it, and so the effect would be greatly diluted. But we will give you the following points.
1. Keep the message to no more than two paragraphs or 4-5 sentences.
2. Start by saying you are writing to speak out about the injustice done to Amiram, his conviction of murder based on confessions elicited by torture. Then say that Amiram's prison conditions are shocking and that you are asking for Netanyahu, as the overseer of the General Security Service, to order Amiram sent to a "Torani wing" (populated by religious inmates) so he can exercise his right to worship and be granted freedom of religion.

Re: Geula for Amiram ben Uliel and Shmuel Koenigs Letter to Knesset Members

Kfar Duma Case – Articles

April 18, 2023

https://www.honenu.org/kfar-duma-case-articles

In this comprehensive link, Honenu has provided a significant number of links that provide overwhelming evidence that Amiram ben Uliel is completely innocent of the crime for which he is convicted of, namely the Duma arson of July 31, 2015. The perpetrators of this horrific crime are still at large, roaming the streets, free to repeat similar criminal acts that killed or murdered an Arab mother, father and their child.

No one disagrees that the perpetrators should be found and brought to justice. But holding the wrong person hostage is preventing that from happening.

Amiram is not the guilty one.

Within 5 hours of the crime, Jews were blamed in the media by top political VIPs in the highest level of the Israeli government before any investigation took place.

Jews, namely Settler youth, hundred(s) of them, were taken into custody and denied basic human rights. They were denied rights to an attorney, and underwent severe emotional and psychological trauma.

In spite of their investigation, of a few months, the Shabak division of Jewish Terror didn't manage to find any Jew that they could prosecute in spite of their "heroic" efforts and there was tremendous pressure to find the "Jewish" perpetrator.

Was there any investigation of the Arab clans that perpetrated similar acts of arson against one another including the Dwabshe family.

(Perhaps the perpetrator had to be "Jewish" since this investigation had more to do with politics than with truth and justice. Basically a frame-up).

In December 2015 they finally arrested Amiram who had since moved to Jerusalem after his home was destroyed several times over and was living in Adei Ad, in a trailer, with his wife and baby.

For seventeen days Amiram denied he had anything to do with this arson. Amiram's wife Orian, said he has an alibi and was with her that night and she went to do car pool while he was watching their baby but noone wanted to hear her out and hear her husband's alibi.

Shabak found their perpetrator scapegoat and now just needed to prove it.

A modern day blood libel.

Finally after receiving permission to torture Amiram aka "using extraordinary measures" Amiram confessed. But A real investigation for truth and justice never happened.

Amiram and his family maintain his innocence. They too would like the real killer found and apprehended. They never in any way educated and encouraged Amiram to murder innocent Arabs. After the Duma arson they never bragged about murdering innocent Arabs and from the get go, aside from his forced confession extracted following torture, maintained Amiram was innocent.

Amiram's forced tortured confession is the sole evidence the courts had on him. Self incrimination is inadmissible in a Jewish court of law and in modern day civilized democracies as well. There was no other additional incriminating evidence, let alone 2 witnesses required by Jewish law. In fact the opposite. Reports of an Arab witness at the scene of the crime, reported in Haaretz, immediately following the arson, a totally different version of what happened. There are no collaborating photographs nor videos of the crime. No forensic evidence that collaborated with Amiram's confession. In fact the opposite... The forensic evidence does not match his version, his "confession".

In addition, the methods by which he reenacted the crime, namely with his interrogator present, should have rendered such evidence inadmissable.

This miscarriage of justice is piercing the heavens.

Brutal physical and psychological torture prompted Amiram's forced and false confession. After countless delays, known in Jewish law as Inui Hadin, a trial was finally held where the court ruled that his forced confession "justified" 3 life sentences.

If the above miscarriage of justice wasn't enough, over the past seven years, Amiram is subjected to daily nonstop emotional trauma due to his total isolation from normal daily human social interactions with his wife, with his daughter and/or friends. For 7 years he is barely allowed to communicate with his wife except via a thick glass nor hold his infant daughter.

During Covid even that minimum was taken from him.

He has been subjected to total unjustified and cruel solitary confinement, which is unprecedented even for the most hardened of criminals ... which he is clearly not.

Amiram was at the time a young married man with a baby and is a devout Breslov Chosid whose teachings emphasize living a holy lifestyle and to refrain from gazing at anything improper that might distract and detract his service to G-d .

This profile and background and constitution does not match in any way a common sense macho profile of a radicalized Jewish criminal who would risk a suicidal attempt to venture 4 kilometers into an Arab village to perpetrate such a heinous hate crime against innocent Arabs.

ציון במשפט תפדה ושביה בצדקה

Zion will be redeemed with Justice and her returnees with Righteousness.

Shmuel Koenig's letter:

Dear Knesset Member,

We have to stop fighting each other and we should  prevent a civil war.

We have to do what Hashem wants And unite behind Hashem.

As far as Judicial reform:

The Torah teaches that we cannot convict on the basis of confession, especially so if the confession was done under torture.

This applies to the case of Amiram Ben Uliel.

We should ask the Rabbonim to form a Sanhedrin and apply Jewish law and ideas to the Jewish state..

With best wishes for the Geula,

Shmuel Koenig

BEH! Free Amiram ben Uliel with Mishpat Tzedek - Righteousness and Justice. A follow up email to yesterday's April 27,2023 meeting with Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky and Gila Slonim

Bsd

אל המקום אשר...

Yasher Koach to Rabbi Shmuel Kamenetsky for having met with Gila Slonim today regarding Amiram ben Uliel.

Please note Gila's personal involvement. Evyatar Slonim mentioned in the posts below is the son of Ze'ev and Gila Slonim.

We Demand a Trial for Our Son'
Parents of Avi Slonim tell Ya'alon they are 'shocked and hurt' by his 'slander' claiming son's administrative arrest is tied to arson.
By Nir Har-Zahav
Aug 22, 2015,
https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/199777

Bh, Evyatar Slonim was released early on, Chasdei Hashem following Gila's and her husbands tireless efforts on all fronts, political and otherwise including their public statements in the media, the 7 day hunger strike by their son Evyatar, and Tehillim campaigns and Hafrashat Challah campaigns.

The following open letter was sent to Rabbi Shnuel Kamenetsky and members of MGH in Feb. 2016 around the time Evyatar Slonim was about to be released.

Sadly to say, after the release of the initial Hilltop youth suspects, namely Avi Slonim and Meir Ettinger, the govt interrogated others and finally found and settled on replacement vulnerable Settler scapegoats, namely Minor E. And Amiram ben Uliel to replace their initial choice of scapegoats.

The root of the incarcerations, the immoral and inhumane treatment and administrative detention violating basic civil and human rights of many Settler Youth, not only these 4, was due to an idealistic stubborn insistence for a Jewish State with the law of the Land consistent and based on Torah. This apparently poses a serious threat to the ruling governing branches of the GOI.

If you listen to Meir Ettinger this is what he requests. Settling the Land of Israel with Torah law being the law of the Land of Eretz Yisroel.

This seems to be what threatens the Judicial System of the GOI today.

We pray each day
הושיבה שופטינו כבראשונה,
return our judges as they once were.

Judicial reform will hopefully supercede and replace and render irrelevant corrupt, self appointing despots. Corrupt ruling powers are threatened by laws that seek truth, righteousness and justice the very foundation of G-d's H-ly Kingdom.

Open Letter to the Gedoilim: Rabbi Shmuel Kamenetsky, Rabbi Feldman, Rabbi Aharon Kotler and Rabbi Moshe Sternbuch re: Meir Ettinger Latest update Administrative detention extended. Davan for Meir David Chai ben Tova

Lichvod the Administrative secy of Rav Kamenetsky of the Yeshiva in Philadelphia:
Please open and print this very important post sent in 2016 and show it to Rav Shmuel Kamenetzky. The words are very relevant today and only names and dates have changed.

Al Taamod Al Dam Reyacha. How much longer must Amiram sit in solitary isolation jail for a crime he never committed and the miscarriage of Justice is as clear as daylight.

She is an advocate and spokesperson for FREE AMIRAM a grassroots organization to bring Righteousness, Justice, and Fairness to Amiram ben Uliel who sits in prison since 2016. He serves under the severest conditions of solitary confinement with very minimal visitation rights, physical or otherwise, for the murder of the Dawabshe family in Duma in July 2015. The only evidence found for this conviction was Amiram’s own confession following torture which also conflicted with other evidence on the scene. She is dedicated to finding a way to secure the release of Amiram.

Gila private practice: Diagnoses and Healing Consultant using Avnei HaHoshen and crystals. 

Additional info about Gila Slonim:

Having lived in Israel for over 30 years, after making Aliya from Australia Gila has worked in various areas. At one stage she worked in a prestigious University in the fundraising arena as well as planning and running academic programs. From there she moved into the world of Avnei HaHoshen and Crystals and invested time in one of her greatest passions of working with and healing people. She feels that it is an incredible Zechut to work with Avnei HaHoshen, one of the holy creations of Hashem. 

In the background, and often the foreground, of Gila’s professional life other projects have received great focus. Primarily that of Eretz Yisrael which is not only expressed through where Gila lives, in the Shomron, but also in her extensive voluntary work for the Nachala Movement which aims is to bring the government back to the policy of establishing and developing new Yishuvim in Yehuda and Shomron.  

At the moment Gila is also investing a great deal of her time in the important mitzvah of Pidyon Shvuyim, Redeeming prisoners. She is dedicated to finding a way to secure the release of Amiram Ben Uliel.

HaRav Shaoul David Botschko: After Zadorov's acquittal, a retrial is needed for Amiram Ben Oliel

"…The Torah states "According to two witnesses... a thing will be established". The meaning of this statement is a basic principle according to which a criminal should not be punished in the absence of hard and solid proof.

The Torah also stated that "no man calls himself evil", and this means the essential principle, not to rely on the confession of an accused person for crimes.

 We also learned that the one who testifies for profit, such as one who seeks to save his life, or to take a salary, his testimony is not testimony."

הרב בוצ'קו: אחרי זיכוי זדורוב, דרוש משפט חוזר לעמירם בן אוליאל

הרב שאול דוד בוצ'קו

03.04.23 | 13:03 |

מאחר וכתב ההרשעה של בן אוליאל?

"התורה קובעת "על פי שני עדים… יקום דבר". משמעותה של קביעה זו היא עקרון בסיסי ולפיו, אין להעניש פושע, בהעדר הוכחות הדוקות ומוצקות כברזל.

עוד קבעה התורה "אין אדם משים עצמו רשע", ומשמעותה העקרון המהותי, שלא להסתמך על הודאת נאשם בפלילים.

עוד למדנו, כי המעיד למטרות רווח, כגון שמבקש להציל את נפשו, או ליטול שכר, אין עדותו עדות
